"At a presentation for upcoming Dota 2-themed card game Artifact at Valve's offices in Bellevue, Washington today, Gabe Newell reiterated that Valve is getting back into developing new games beyond its current roster of multiplayer titles. After talking about Valve's focus on Steam and hardware during the past several years, which he described as "an investment in the future", Newell said "Artifact is the first of several games that are going to be coming from us. So that's sort of good news. Hooray! Valve's going to start shipping games again.""

Remember when Valve made games like Half Life, Left4Dead and Portal, instead of shilling out skins and keys in a mediocre multi-player shooter making money off of unregulated and under age gambling. Remember when it was a positive to be on Steam, instead of it being flooded with more effortless, copy paste, rip offs than mobile storefronts. Until Valve decides to make any effort to absolutely anything of value they're easily one of the worst publishers/companies in gaming, but no Valve is still the internet's darling instead their hate is directed toward EA, or Ubisoft who while not perfect is doing far more good than Valve has in years. https://youtu.be/jNLemHpDQ60

Half-Life introduced narrative and story telling for FPS, it also had AI that would fight each other. Half-Life 2 is still the standard today for single player campaigns, it has the first real physics interactions in gaming, it introduced top quality facial animations and overall incredible graphics. The Half-Life series set the bar for single player FPS games.

Counter-Strike is the number 1 online action game series. It's success revolves on its skill-based game-play and clever maps.

Team Fortress 2, despite being 6 years old, is still one of most played FPS today. It has been VALVe's playground for experimentation and is now one of the most versatile FPS to exist. It introduced community-created content as part of a game.

Portal series is the most innovative FPS experience in recent years, if not of all time. It's an entirely new kind of experience with great humour and clever design. You are now thinking with portals.
